MagnaFlow OEM Grade Direct-Fit Catalytic Converter for 1996-2001 Nissan Altima, Stainless Steel

What You Need to Know

If you're looking to keep that check engine light off and get your Nissan Altima running smoothly, this MagnaFlow OEM Grade Direct-Fit Catalytic Converter is a solid choice. Designed specifically for the 1996-2001 models, it’s built with a focus on performance and compliance, so you know you're getting something that works.

First off, the body is made from stainless steel, which means it’s tough against corrosion and built to last. The overall length is about 10 inches, and it features a ceramic substrate that does a great job of filtering out those harmful emissions. Plus, it’s a bolt-on installation, so you won’t need to mess around with cutting or welding—just grab the right tools and you’re good to go.

This converter is designed to fit like a glove, thanks to MagnaFlow’s advanced metrology department that uses 3D scanning during development. It replicates the OE spun body design, which helps reduce the risk of leaks with a single laser fusion weld. That compact, low-mass design is not just about looks; it also boosts thermal efficiency, which is a win-win.

What’s more, the package comes with all the necessary gaskets and hardware, so you won’t have to scrounge around for old, corroded parts that might not seal properly. It’s all about making the installation process as smooth as possible.

On the compliance side, this unit meets or even exceeds Federal emissions standards set by the EPA, ensuring it’s legal for OBDII registered vehicles with either California or Federal/EPA emission systems. So you can feel good about making this upgrade.

So if you own a 1996-2001 Nissan Altima and are looking for a reliable, easy-to-install catalytic converter, the MagnaFlow 49360 is definitely worth considering. It’s built to perform, and you’ll appreciate the peace of mind that comes with it.
